General Conversation
Granuloma annulare is a chronic degenerative skin disorder. One of the most common form is local granuloma annulare, which is characterized by the presence of tiny, solid red or yellow colored bumps (blemishes or papules) that show up arranged in a ring on the skin. In many cases, the sizes of the lesions range from one to five centimeters. One of the most commonly influenced sites consist of the feet, hands, and also fingers. In addition to the local form, there are four less usual kinds: generalized or distributed, straight, piercing, and also subcutaneous. The sores related to granuloma annulare normally disappear without treatment (spontaneous remission). However, the lesions frequently re-emerge. The precise reason for granuloma annulare is unknown.
